Hilary Bartlett’s paintings are on display in the Hall Gallery at Miles Memorial Hospital until May 28. Hilary lives year-round in Boothbay Harbor. Her art covers a broad range of subjects in soft swirls of watercolor or bold swaths of acrylic inks. While some pieces are representational she also loves to paint intuitively, allowing the fluid spontaneity of initial pours to suggest a composition. A few images portray enchanted realms inspired by her mother’s published fantasy tales. Others evolve into underwater scenes that reflect her marine biology background.
